The best Black Friday deals for 2022

Best Black Friday Deals 2021 Promo Feature.

We’re inching ever closer to Black Friday 2022 on November 25, the day after Thanksgiving. But if you thought the deals weren’t going to land until then, you might want to think again. Now’s the perfect time to start some early shopping to get ahead of the holiday rush, especially with various ongoing shortages and supply chain issues. It’s never too early to start thinking about what you’ll need to buy this year. That’s especially true if you don’t have a Prime membership to take advantage of Amazon Prime Day deals, as Black Friday (and by extension Cyber Monday) are the only sales that are really comparable.

And because Black Friday sales are so big and offer discounts on virtually everything money can buy — there are a ton of Black Friday laptop deals, for example — it’s always a good idea to stay on top of them. We’ve rounded up some of the best early Black Friday deals, many of which you can shop right this instant. We’ve also separated them by price range, so you can find exactly what you need, at exactly the cost you want. You can check all the current deals out below.

Best Black Friday deals under $100

The Best Buy Black Friday sale has actually started early, with many deals already available, and more to come.

Amazon Echo Show 8 (2nd Gen, 2021) — $70, was $130

The Amazon Echo Show 8 (2nd Gen) plays video from a streaming service.

Alexa and Amazon’s Echo devices probably need no introduction, but the Echo Show 8 incorporates an 8-inch HD touchscreen display with adaptive color. Why’s that a big deal? Well, it adds video to the Echo experience — where Echo speakers are normally just audio. So, you can make and take video calls on the device, watch media, view calendars and reminders, manage smart home devices, and much more. It’s an excellent little device to put just about anywhere in your home, such as your kitchen, a side room, a bedroom, and beyond. Plus, it’s on sale right now so grab it while the deal lasts!

Chromebooks versus laptops — what’s the difference, you ask? Chromebooks are fantastic for productivity and quick touch-and-go tasks like writing, schoolwork, and beyond. They’re also great little media players, as you can download and use Google Play apps on them, including some games. This Asus Chromebook has 64GB of eMMC internal storage, 8GB of RAM — double what we normally see in comparably-priced models — and a 2-in-1 clamshell design that lets you prop up and orient the system precisely how you want. The 14-inch Full HD touchscreen display makes navigation a lot easier too.

Samsung Galaxy Tab S8 Ultra 128GB with Wi-Fi and S-Pen — $950, was $1,100

Samsung Galaxy Tab S8 Ultra.

Samsung’s tablets are exquisite, and the Tab S8 Ultra is no exception. Perhaps that’s why we crowned it the king of Samsung’s tablet lineup. This model includes 128GB of internal storage, and 8GB of RAM — more than enough to multitask with ease — and it comes with an S-Pen stylus. It’s great for taking personal notes, academic studies, drawing, and creative work, browsing the web, watching media, listening to music — you get the idea. While the current sale price is fantastic, you can also get credit toward your purchase by trading in an old device, so keep that in mind!
